Taking a cruise is a great way to see many different places when you travel. Cruises offer many activities and things to do while on the ship, while offering you the opportunity to explore different locations each time you arrive at a port. This article will tell you some more about cruising, as well as give you some tips for making the most of your cruise.
Going on a cruise can be an appealing way to travel for those who want to visit many different locations. They can do so without having to drive themselves or have the hassle of different planes and/or trains. You also only ever have to unpack and re-pack once! Cruises also have the added benefits of having many quality places to eat, and lots of entertainment, ensuring a good trip.
If you want to get the best price on a cruise vacation, either book your cruise early or at the very last moment. With booking early, you get the widest selection of accommodations plus you save 25 to 50 percent off the published price for each traveler. With booking at the last moment, you will not have the best choice of cabins but you can sometimes save more than 50 percent off the published price of your cabin.
One thing to consider with cruising is the type of cabin you will be staying in. The main options are Inside, Oceanview, Balcony and Suites.
An Inside Cabin is in the middle of the ship with no windows or natural light. If complete darkness is not for you, then you might want to avoid booking an inside cabins! One tip if you want to wake up to some light is most big cruise lines have a camera pointing out the front of the ship that you can view from your cabin’s TV. Just turn the TV to this channel when you go to bed and you will soon turn your Inside Cabin into an Oceanview when the sun rises in the morning!
An Oceanview has a window or port hole looking out to the ocean, where a Balcony as the name suggest, has its own private balcony. Having your own private balcony can be one of the best parts of a cruise. You'll get great views, have a nice quiet place to relax, and you won't have to worry about other people being around.
When traveling on a cruise ship, it is important to tip the staff members even before they have performed a service. You will come into contact with these employees many times throughout your stay on board. You might even consider giving your cabin steward an immediate tip once you arrive. The quality of the service you receive is likely to be even better than it would have been otherwise.
If the cruise ship you are traveling on has a shore day and you do not want to try and find a restaurant and spend a lot of money when you are having fun hanging out on the beach or elsewhere then consider taking your own food from the ship. Before you get off the ship you can get plenty of food from the ship’s buffet or even just call room service and order some items. Pack it in your daypack and enjoy your destination of the day.
You might want to consider bringing your own snorkel and goggles with you when you are traveling on a cruise ship. Rather than spending money on an official "snorkeling excursion," just use your own equipment during a shore day. Snorkel and goggles don't take up a lot of room in your suitcase, and this method allows you to avoid time limits or the hassles associated with swimming in a group.
Consider attending the educational seminars while traveling on board a cruise ship. Most ships offer these lectures for free, and they are often entertaining and interesting. Many talk about something related to your cruise, such as the wildlife that you might see along the cruise. This activity can make your entire trip more enjoyable.
If safety and security is one of your highest issues and you're going on a cruise, you do not need to worry too much. Most cruise lines these days have personal in-cabin safes where you can lock away all your valuables.
There are lots and lots of cruise lines offering fine travel packages throughout the World. Some are more memorable than others, though. If being on a massive cruise ship with 2000-3000 people is not your cup of tea, then consider an exciting alternative to a more modern, conventional cruise ships like sailing around the islands of Croatia on a small sailing boat, or a barefoot windjammer cruise that visits the islands of the Caribbean powered along by wind and the tides.
As was stated in the beginning of this article, a great way to explore many different locations while you travel is to go on a cruise. Cruise ships offer plenty to do on-board, with the option of exploring off the ship when you dock. Apply the tips from this article to make the most of your next cruise.
